I have an odd SLA calculation I am trying to build and it just doesn't seem to work.
I have a Completion Percentage.
Example:
Job 1 uses 5 of 10 allotted days. It therefore meets SLA.
Job 2 uses 11 of 10 alloted days. It therefore fails to meet SLA
Job 3 uses 12 of 10 alloted days. It therefore fails to meet SLA
Job 4 used uses 11 of 10 alloted days. It therefore fails to meet SLA
Of the 4 jobs, the MEETS SLA percentage is 25%
The calculation I have been asked to provide is an Under Aggregate percentage.
Of the 4 jobs, the total alloted days is 40. The total days used is 39 of 97.5% of the alloted days.
100% of Aggregated Allocation days is 40, so I need a calculation that is 100% - 97.5% and the result show as 2.5% Under Aggregate.
I have tried:
Sum of Days to Complete divided by Sum of Allocation SLA Days =
DIVIDE(1-
SUM('TABLENAME'[Days to Complete]),
SUM('TABLENAME'[ALLOCATION SLA Days]))
But it isn't coming out correctly. I know I am missing a SUBTRACTION function, I am just not sure how to write it.
Any assistance would be much appreciated.
Solved! Go to Solution.
@Anonymous I guess you need this:
1-
DIVIDE(
SUM('TABLENAME'[Days to Complete]),
SUM('TABLENAME'[ALLOCATION SLA Days])
)

Thank you. Yes, that is what I was looking for. Moving the -1 to before the DIVIDE function.
